In Japanese, 'Sarinagara' means 'and yet'. This word is the last word of one of the most famous poems of Japanese literature. When he writes it, Kobayashi Issa has just lost his only child: yes, all is emptiness. But Issa mysteriously adds this last word to his poem, leaving its meaning in suspense. This enigma is the theme of a narrative that brings together the stories of three Japanese artists across the centuries: Issa, the last great Haiku master of the 18th century, Natsume Soseki, inventor of the Japanese modern novel at the end of the 19th century, and Yamahata Yosuke, who was the first photographer to take pictures of the victims and ruins of Nagasaki in August 1945. These three 'dreamed lives' make the substance of a narrative that takes the reader from Paris to Kyoto and from Tokyo to Kobe, and asks the question of how anyone can hope to survive the most heartbreaking experience. 'Surviving is both the test and the enigma'. Following the death of his young daughter, the narrator moves to Japan with the project of writing an essay on Japanese literature. There, on the other side of the earth, he experiences a series of incidents that connect him to a recurrent childhood dream and allow him to explore the depth of his own grief through the stories of others. "Sarinagara" is a poignant meditation on the nature of grief, art, and memory.

我知道这世界 如露水般短暂 然而然而 翻译的人水平很好,把文字转化得很优美,和此书偶遇在图书馆外国小说书架,翻开,扉页上写着这样一首小诗,轻声诵读,很有味道的然而,虐了回来,然而什么呢?寥寥...
评分《然而》,叙事未完,欲知后事如何哪?人们通过接触研究他人获得对自己的认同,如同交朋友一样,你所周遭的朋友在某些方面其实就是你的影子,你部分特征的写照。作家菲利普着眼于日本文学大师的生平,特意加以描述,用其笔触和心态编制了一个个他自己心目中的形象,是作家认为...
评分菲利浦·福雷不厌其烦地引证同一时代各国不同的历史步伐,以期说明正进行在日本国土之上的个人成长史,之于小林一茶、夏目漱石、山端庸介,缓慢的个人成长史。在与阿贵的交流里,我们得到的共识是“节制”。的确,女儿的短暂生命如果起初带给他永恒的疼痛,那么随着时间渐进,...
评分合上书页,走出图书馆,已经是傍晚。太阳快要落山了,金色的光线照耀在小路旁茂盛的两排竹子上,竹叶仿佛镀上了一层金边。我还沉浸在这本书忧伤的故事里,慢慢走着,梳理着繁杂的阅读感受。 也许是读的书还不够多,这本书真的给我带来很大的震撼和感触。平时读的法国小说和日本...
